Almond
NOTE: Almond carries a semi-lethal gene in the Homozygous state of cocks
as indicated in the examples below. These birds lack vigor, can show
"bladder eyes" and other eye defects, and may not live long if they hatch at
all.

Patterns
The rules for patterns apply regardless of the color or modifier present. As
long as one understands the order of dominance in patterns, one can easily
apply the rules to their breeding program. No pattern can reproduce another
pattern more dominant than itself unless bred to one.
CHECK
Check or TPattern Check
cannot produce
Spread unless
mated to
one. Checks can
produce bars or
barless.
BAR
Bars cannot
produce checks or
Spread unless
mated to one. Bars
can produce
barless.
BARLESS
Barless can only produce barless
when mated together.
Spread
We include Spread here separately from the other modifiers and patterns
based on information we have received that Spread is technically not a
pattern, but it does affect the pattern of a bird. In the matings below, Impure
Spread refers to Spread birds that care masking another pattern. Pure Spread
will be referred to as Homozygous Spread.
Spread is not sex-linked so the colors of the parents can be reversed and the
same results will occur.
